Chester in his new coat...

bensonlola · Nov 28, 2010

Just had Chester out for his evening ablutions, sporting his new coat I made him! He's a dachshund so I cant find one long enough to fit him in the shops! He is 14 and a half with a touch of arthritis so I made it extra long to cover his wee hips!! Blessim!

Aww gorgeous dog!!

Loving the coat! Do you want to make one for me, it's so cold outside?! :shock:

Tee hee! Thanks - not making any more! This one took me ages. Here's a better one with the hood/collar up.

He looks nice and cosy. I especially like to hood.

He doesn't particularly appreciate it, but when the cold gets into his wee joints he gets pains so it's my attempt to limit the amount of steroids he has to take. I have him down to one every third day.

Aw, cute!

Lou loves his coat in the cold weather, but being on steroids he's got a bit porky around the middle and I had to spend time the other day lengthening all the fastenings!

Chester looks very cosy

Chester's put on weight too. Whatareya gonna do? He's nearly 15 - just keep him pain free and happy! Try to curtail what he eats but it's very difficult. At least Louis will eat veg for you!!

..and then spends the evening trumping....

Have a look on this site - http://www.vetuk.co.uk/

We use the garlic & fenugreek tablets for Lou's dodgy feet (the cysts) - they are so much better now and hardly flare up at all. And we also use the vegetable ones for his joints, which again seem so much better.

We crush Louis to put on his dinner - they smell yummy! I forgot to add them in the other day and he wouldn't eat it! Then I realised, added the crushed tablets, and he gobbled it up
